Dear Dr. Sudeshna Parida ,

copper-coated graphite plating is an electroplating method, in which a layer of copper is plated on the surface of graphite, which can replace the traditional graphite attached to copper foil, reduce the interface thermal resistance between copper layer and graphite, increase the thermal conductivity, and improve the tensile strength of graphite. Graphite can be natural graphite or artificial graphite, copper layer can also choose different thickness, improve the performance, and reduce the complexity of the production process, reduce the cost.

Copper-coated graphite plating can be used after graphite copper plating in places with good heat dissipation performance and shielding effect. It can also replace the traditional graphite sheet, mainly used in notebook computers, high-power LED lighting, flat panel displays, digital cameras, mobile phones and personal assistant equipment.

Agree with Pierluigi Traverso Sir.

Dear Sudeshna Parida

Graphite electroplating plays an important role in the construction of materials used in a variety of industries. This process has been in use for decades. While different metals can be used for coating and base, graphite, though not metal, is a popular choice for both. This material is just one substrate that is used in electroplating. In some cases, graphite powder allows non-conductive material to receive electroplating. When the electroplating on the base, coating metal contributes its positive features to the core, creating a product that is larger than the sum of its parts. Electroplating sets itself apart from electroless plating in numerous ways. While some differences lie in the materials used and the specific steps of the processes, the more critical variances appear in the finished products. Electroplating requires the base material to have at least a conductive surface. If you're electroplating on something non-conductive, you need a layer of a conductive coating. Graphite powder solves this problem in some cases because it's both conductive and available in a low-cost, easy-to-apply powder. Electroless plating can use anything as the base, from glass to plastic to ceramics.
